code Cowboys over manscaped.com all right let's break down some super thanks that came in AF guy 79 get a ball to tobert on Fourth and eight instead of going for a 46 field goal with your money kicker and three timeouts left was dumb then get the ball back at the game winner from from 11 as time expires so I actually have no complaints about Dallas going forward on fourth down your kicker been great I didn't think they were going to get the football back and frankly they they they they did a good job I I I get that but your defense it kind of maxed out a little bit in hindsight if you know they were going to get it back sure you would you would kicked it away but I think the the best chance of winning there was to go for it now your mistake was and this this in the end was a Miss by Dak shouldn't go to Tolbert the play as design there was there Nate tus who's smarter than me uh the the athletic football show did a and I I'll surise what he said I think he he knows it well he knows better than I do the play is designed for lamb lamb is doubled so Dax go okay o Line's bad got to get it out go to my ex single coverage so you go from lamb right over to tolber you actually don't ever get to Ferguson in that progression but Ferguson's wide open and that stings because he's there and it's it's it's I think one of those where you kind of have to override the the scheme or design and go to the matchup and that's Ferguson who's a better player right now now than trying to go to tolber and that's in the moment it's very tough for your quarterback it it it is it is a mistake it's probably one of the five or six he made all game stings pretty badly I'm actually not mad about mik not kicking the field goal there I I'd have been pissed if they kicked the field goal because you needed to get the ball back still either way you needed the ball back so you should you should go for it when you have the ball so grade Mike McCarthy against the Eagles I think there are still some things to to be mad about with Mike overall they just lot of why are you being so cautious there ABCD ORF go vote in the comments right now Xavier worthy burner this is a long one fourth down second to last Drive Ferguson gets open for some reason read of tobert uh yeah so kind of just mentioned that there um it it's matchup versus scheme you know you you needed to you needed to go go to Ferguson it's it you would think the progressions full across it's actually not it's it's to get to the X receiver quickly because right tackle has been bad all game but I when Dax set the game you know there were a couple plays he left on the field that was one of them absolutely was one of them also said I don't know Dax was the fake spike or if Mike was in his ear but what are we doing there cut Steeler bench him I don't care the C can't be getting worked like that all night he can't he needs more help um I actually didn't mind the the the the fake spike play decent shot try to try to catch him napping but at that point you you're you're trying to pull for miracle like it's kind of like the last two games against the Niners like the final play is ugly the game's over you need a miracle you you can get weird with it it's fine I say I will say I thought Tyron played well and most of the o line did I wonder why Mike didn't put a tight end help steal PA though I agree you need needed a chip there you probably have to do do that more more frequently also from zavier Worthy's burner this was a previous one by the way but we will always give shout outs here to Super thanks that come in because we appreciate you guys um he says he's going to feel better moving forward you know just step up get everyone run through a wall no Mike's at the best of that I get all that there u i i I mention this because a we we always give shout outs to Super thanks as they come in here and I'm just curious if you guys still feel better after the loss all right one more from bohana 94 Tom my guy has always love the show so with the games we have left to play do you what do you see our win loss record Being also F chugs I'm looking at at an 11 win season win some manageable games split some of your playoff Contender Talib opponents you'll play it on the stretch I think that's reasonable what do you guys think predict that Cowboys record for me in the comments section it's the pin comments on today's show so if the ad comes here on YouTube take advantage of it head down there and let me know Sam says more passes checkdowns to Pard to get him going I don't I don't know if that's the route I want to go I I I I I I get trying to get him going but against the a giant sure cuz you should beat them anyway but I I I don't want to just feed Pard to feed Pard I'd rather I'd rather feed lamb in Ferguson right now Chris B this loss hurts more because they teased us and feels like we are always on the losing side of idiotic ways to lose a game every year it feels like it I think most teams have at least one game like that but yeah it stung that that was a more frustrating loss a more painful loss I suppose Lone Wolf unrelated where does Herbert rank at you QB currently I think he's top three he's not for me he's good like Herbert's really good don't get wrong he's a very talented quarterback but you know for all the all the criticisms we give Dak of a can't beat good teams a can't beat good defenses a win losses playoffs whatever isn't that Herbert more than anyone definitely top 10 definitely franchise guy worth paying better physical skill set but he's not top three in some order for me it is still momes one I go burrow 2 Allen 3 Burrow's fully back by the way Dwayne Jackson as far as the ground game has been non-existent is it scheme oine skill or oine skill versus scheme B of everything your o Line's not doing a good enough job blocking they've been bad there's no way around they've not lived up to to the expectations there The Backs will occasionally miss a hole power missing maybe a half step of juice but like I don't think that's really the rude issue there I don't like that tight zone I'm going to keep calling it scheme for the Cowboys single biggest easy it's not the easy solution block better if the old line blocks better the ground game will improve overnight much easier said than done now Today's show was made possible by manscaped are

today's show Mary Hernandez how are the Cowboys offense when it's the last minute clutch drive not good including Dak what happens before doesn't matter I appreciate the Super Chat Mark and we're we're in the vent window so you're good but what happens before does matter right like that's the only reason why you're in it they they weren't good enough make no mistake they they were not good enough but you still move the ball 80 yards to get into into position to win the game now yeah you have to finish off the D drive right you got to convert in the Red Zone you can't have the the tight end be tackled a inch shy because the pi happened on the play and that's why he didn't get in the end zone you got to finish off those drives there you do don't get me wrong but you got down there like we wouldn't even be having the conversation if they didn't move the football the offense and Dak play great in that game at least the passing offense played great in that game minus Terence steel and that's why it's frustrating because you were one play away one play away needs to be better don't get me wrong but I'm also not going to call it bad either Rashard Lee what's they positive for yesterday's game Dak Dak played great was awesome carried the team so did lamb lamb was out of his mind Ferguson played great I thought Tyler Smith played really well uh you know your your your offense right now is kind of Dak to lamb Dak to Ferguson and and Dak kind of spread it around a bit more those are your positives on offense defensively thought the same Williams flashed probably give him some more run I thought Micah played very well and you were one bounce away from from getting the win Alex smack would you rather have Kell Moore or Mike McCarthy calling the the plays me let me be nice to Mike I've been plenty mean to Mike I think the changes to this offense that they've made the past three games have been positive ones it's a much better offense overall they've gotten away from things that weren't working through the air and got into things that are so I'll give Mike credit there now fix the ground game and we can have some more success Allan Scott would forign help the ground game no this is the same TR Derrick Henry Henry Henry wasn't really available guys the you can give the ball to Da more give the ball to tpy more maybe that leads to some better short yardage stuff but if the holes aren't there the running back's not going to work which is why you don't pay backs n fre AG with the bills practice squad you could sign if you wanted to make note of that you could sign from the practice squad for the bills but he is on the bills practice squad not playing right now not ready name a free agent who you guys want to add sound off for me in the comment section right now Joseph Ian Torres Terence still needs more one-on ones with Micah Parsons you do something get to get up to speed you can try it sure um look he got he gets a lot of one-on ones against Micah and actually you know what I don't even know if if that's a good thing like Micah might just be too good for one-on ones like it might be like a in basketball you know you're you're you're the six foot guard and now you got to go go guard sha okay it's not actually going to make you any better he's just too good that's that's kind of my concern against Micah um you got to figure out something there I think the solution um is he needs more help more chips in pass protection zier Brown should to tra the deadline for a wide receiver o line and back back would helped you like I like I who who are we going to get like I'm I would have gone for Ezra Cleveland in a heartbeat I would have done that I could have plugged him in at left guard and tried someone right tackle tried something there I would have done that deal in a heartbeat but the running backs aren't going to work unless your o Line's better and the receivers who were moved didn't move the needle either dpj I'd say give tobert more run and again your passing game when the o line holds up is doing pretty well right now now if you enjoy our Dallas Cowboys mailbags then sub right now free Cowboys videos every single day multiple times per day right here on the channel hit that sub button right now old school Doug why to kick tires on lipkey on o he's a beast I wouldn't call him a beast um he's a udfa but he's got the the bigger guy size to be a a a a PowerBack I would mind more Red Zone stuff for him um I'm down to try it my suspicion is they see him in practice and know this isn't this isn't it either um that's what practice is for after all but I would like to get him some more run in the Red Zone in particular moxy's mix hey why don't they use awesome Richards at right tackle just for a game and see the result I I think practice is where you start with that and see how it goes I will say in the Reps we've seen from Aus at on the left side there have been some red flags the the power the the the power is simply not there um I I I think he's a developmental piece who needs more time like I I I don't think he's there yet by the way all of his snaps UNC I had to go go go check my notes they were on the left side so asking a total position flip is probably not not what you want but practice sure try it out from fake jurgus is Jake Ferguson breaking out um yes he is he's been awesome this year I think he's he is your second best playmaker at at at this stage he's he's been he's been awesome he's been a baller but you need you need to get more of those you know you need one more one more piece and ideally it's the ground game that can step up for you who has been the best best surprise for the Cowboys offense or Cowboys overall this year positive surprises only maybe it's Fergie sound off in the comments section and finally Chris B sick of paying our guy off of torn acl's galp and steel right it's not great um it's frustrating hopefully steel bounces back down the stretch SL maybe more likely next year [Music]
